Characters
Synopsis
In the beginning of the short, Patrick is seen trying to catch jellyfish. However, without SpongeBob, he forgets how to hold it correctly and holds the jellyfish net backwards. Patrick decides to throw the net at the group of jellyfish after numerous failed attempts to catch them. After his throw misses, the group of jellyfish float away.
It turns out that the jellyfish net that Patrick threw landed on a big jellyfish. The giant jellyfish then approaches Patrick as the latter says he wished he can use SpongeBob's jellyfishing expertise right about now as the big jellyfish stings him off-screen, although the stinging noise can be heard, as the short ends.
